I would love to see Cthulhu Wars implemented on BGA! I know they are open to it, but don't have any connections to developers.

I notice you have some games published by Z-Man. Since you've already established a relationship with them, might I suggest reaching out and seeing if you can license Shadow Hunters?

Shadow Hunters is an out of print game, ostensibly for 4-8 players, but really you need a minimum of 5 and ideally at least 6 to make it interesting - that high requirement is probably why it didn't sell well, and why it would be better to have on an online platform (though since it's a bluffing game it does lose a little of its punch without having human faces involved).

Another good out-of-print game from Z-Man is Tragedy Looper, though this one has a steep learning curve and would require two different tutorials because the Protagonist and Mastermind roles are very different, as well as a different UI for the Mastermind, so it might be complicated to implement well. This one likely failed to sell well because of how much work the Mastermind has to do though, so a good rules engine and some thoughtful UI support for the Mastermind would make the game much more accessible. I love it and have both of the expansions, but I've only played a couple times because I haven't found anyone else willing to be Mastermind and my brain isn't usually firing on enough cylinders for it.

GHQ is a pretty fascinating chess-like game. It has some modern pieces like artillery and modern tactics including considerations for fields of fire. It's simpler than Vietnamese Commander Chess - Cờ tư lệnh (another modern chess variant, derived from Chinese Elephant Chess - Xiangqi). But it has some unique aspects such as reserve forces a paratrooper unit (just the one, not any piece like Shogi).

I second this recommendation.

They recently released Kurt Vonnegut's GHQ board game. It's relatively simple. It shouldn't take much programing know how to make a version for BGA. Hopefully somone on the site would be willing and able to take the lead.
